Football camp is over! Hard to believe. It really represents the biggest hurdle to being a college football player. Like every day, there were two practices today, and it was the warmest day at 87 degrees. We have been SO blessed with reasonable and comfortable weather. I doubt I could have made it were the weather typical for North Dakota in early August, where it is usually 90 + and humid. Certainly I would have suffered a lot more.

The next hurdle for me was truly becoming a part of the team. This proved easier than I expected, but not through any talent of mine. I will blog on this later.

The last hurdle is becoming a Christian student athlete. This is uncharted water for me, and we'll see how it goes. Orientation is Monday and classes start on Wednesday.

Being on E60 would sell a lot of books, but I don't see it happening yet. I just finished my first day of classes. It's amazing how much of college life is done on a laptop or a cell phone. Extracurricular life here is attending a welcome picnic or an evening lecture. Every day starts at 9 a.m. with mandatory Chapel. Are you getting the picture?

LOL! Getting the picture... I don't think Mike and I would fit in too well. Well maybe we would be good candidates to lead a welcoming picnic but just for the new freshman. Are you getting the picture :)

Yep, no more need to go to classes, just remote in from your device these days.

Good luck hitting the books and kick some tail on the field! Remember what I have taught you and take em to POUNDTOWN!
